# Parallax

Used in collaboration with [`Parallax`](/docs/components/parallax) to create visual displacements declaratively and simply.

## Usage

:::note
This component is only available in the `@react-spring/web` package and is therefore only usable in the browser.
:::

```jsx
import { Parallax, ParallaxLayer } from '@react-spring/parallax'

function MyComponent() {
  return (
    <Parallax pages={1} style={{ top: '0', left: '0' }}>
      <ParallaxLayer offset={0} speed={2.5}>
        <p>Parallax</p>
      </ParallaxLayer>
    </Parallax>
  )
}
```

## Reference

import { TablesConfiguration } from '../components/Tables/TablesConfig'
import { PARALLAX_LAYER_CONFIG_DATA } from '../data/fixtures'

All props that can be passed to `HTMLDivElement` can be passed to `Parallax`.

<TablesConfiguration data={PARALLAX_LAYER_CONFIG_DATA} />

## Ref

Passing a `ref` to the `ParallaxLayer` component will give you access to the layer state of the `ParallaxLayer` component via `ref.current`:

```tsx
interface IParallaxLayer {
  horizontal: boolean
  sticky: StickyConfig
  isSticky: boolean
  setHeight(height: number, immediate?: boolean): void
  setPosition(height: number, scrollTop: number, immediate?: boolean): void
}

type StickyConfig = { start?: number; end?: number } | undefined
```
